Healthy Blueberry & Banana Oat Pancakes | Recipe

Hi All! Here’s a little mid-week pick me up for you. I’ve been eating these delicious, quick and healthy banana & blueberry pancakes for breakfast every day this week now and it’s definitely boosted my week so I thought I’d share the recipe!

They’re so ridiculously quick and easy to make and, even better, they’re healthy because I’ve replaced most of the the sugar with a banana and swapped the usual flour with porridge oats for a slow release of energy to last you until lunchtime!

Instructions (takes 5 mins, literally. I just like to write a lot!):
1. Put all of the ingredients, apart from the berries, into a food processor and whizz until they’re blended evenly without any large chunks. The oats don’t need to be completely powdered, as long as as all of the ingredients are evenly mixed. Once the mixture in blended, briefly stir in the blueberries with a spoon.

2. Put a pan on moderate heat and grease so that the pancakes don’t stick. Quick tip: I like to pour olive oil into a spray bottle and spritz the pan to make sure I don’t use too much.

3. Once the pan is warm, use a tablespoon to add the mixture to the pan. This recipe makes two large or three small pancakes. I advise spooning the mixture into a pile and allowing it to spread by itself (rather than trying to spoon into a circle) to ensure that your pancakes are an even shape.

4. Cook for approximately two minutes, checking that the underside of the pancake is browning nicely and, once the batter begins to bubble on the top side, use a spatula to flip your pancakes and cook until golden brown.

5. While your pancakes finish off, put the remaining berries in a microwaveable container and heat in the microwave until they are warm and oozing with delicious berry juice.

6. Once you pancakes are done, flip them onto a plate and spoon your warm berry compote on top. Pour the excess berry juice around the edges of the plate for presentational flair and enjoy!

Nutritional Information (in case you’re into that sort of thing):

These are so ridiculously easy I think I’ll make a YouTube video tutorial on them soon just to emphasise how easy it is. Speaking of which, my To Do list of videos is growing rather large so I think I need to have an intense filming session this week… Did you catch yesterday’s outfit video which I uploaded here?
